Reviews

[Elias Carlson · Rating 3 out of 5]

Timans av Eyvind Johnson, handlar om Familjen Timans under Sveriges gång mot socialism. Fadern Sakarias Timans och hans son Stig Timans är de mest betydelsefulla karaktärerna eftersom de representerar varsin politik bild. Sakarias äger de flesta företagen och lever fint med sin familj. Stig ser inte detta som ett privilege, utan känner sig utesluten från sambandet som arbetarklassen har.

Jag har svårt att säga exakt hur jag känner över boken. Jag ogillar den inte alls, men jag fann mig aldrig fullt indragen i karaktärerna. Fast ännu så läste jag klart boken så fort jag kunde. Det känns lite grann som en oslipad diamant. Ifall du gillar historisk fiction och vill läsa om genombrottet med socialism rekommenderar jag den stort fast det är inte en bok för alla.
